We've made it! 12 gorgeous weeks old today

Mel and Riley come for morning tea!

Adam's new 'ink' project has commenced - this was taken just after the design was transfered onto his arm from photos taken at a previous design session. This work is all freehand making it a one of a kind tattoo. It has a few meanings in amongst the design including the circle of life (representing new life and existing family relationships), cruz's name, the hammerhead shark (strength and prosperity) and the mauri symbol for father mother and child.

Pat hard at work - Adam still cracks a smile despite the situation!

The finished product (for the first session, this is only the outline)

Cruz's name takes pride of place on his daddy's arm

11 weeks 3 days

Nappy change time!

I've never known a baby so happy at nappy change time!

We get all the best smiles and laughs on the change table...

makes cleaning up someone elses poo seem a little more worthwhile

Dad and I have matching hair -

He's just not as easy to snap a photo of to add to the blog

New trick

Dad taught me how to poke my tongue out!

Nan is teaching my how to blow raspberries too

What are these things!??

Cruz has discovered his hands!

And the fact he can almost fit his whole fist in his mouth

My mum knows how to make me laugh!

Mr Serious!

Guess where Adam took Mike and Ric as a surprise for their birthday!!!

(he also stared in the show, that will teach him for booking 3rd row seats)

This cooler weather has moved bath time to the middle of the day

We did lots of reading this week

Aunty Liana called in for a quick chat (4 hours!) last weekend while uncle Ryan was shark fishing
